i hearrd that it has Widevine DRM, so i cant.
i also heard that i can find HLS M3U8 stream file in the Inspector and doit that way but it left out a lot of details.
Dude considered widevineproxy2? Its amazing
https://github.com/DevLARLEY/WidevineProxy2 Or maybe even better (in terms of output quality pls use playreadyproxy)
Playreadyproxy https://github.com/ThatNotEasy/PlayReadyProxy
When you have set it up correctly your gonna love it
And big company says this approach is legal for personal use cause theirs does the same but paid https://streamfab.com/is-streamfab-safe For those who want Netflix or those who want to pay for not even close to 4k content
If they are using L3 Widevine then there is chance to download it, if its L1 then no.
Kanopy uses Widevine DRM, so direct downloading usually won’t work because the streams are encrypted. The easiest workaround is real-time screen recording (e.g., with OBS Studio). Direct decryption is possible but much harder now and usually requires private methods most people don’t share publicly.
obs wont work either, sadly.
this is what soeone ele said on reddit
You can in some cases depending on where you live. Sometimes, if you analyse the Kanopy traffic, you can track the HLS M3U8 stream file in the Inspector, and if the provider is stupid enough, sometimes you can even track the raw MP4. Just go onto Kanopy and see if you can track anything interesting like xhr m3u8 streams, from there you can use ffmpeg with libcrypto and decrypt the stream into MP4 or whatever. To my knowledge, I've not had any problems with ripping Kanopy content and seemingly no DRM remains in the converted file, as it seemingly doesn't use PlayReady or Widevine. The reason is because it lacks sufficient licensed IP to warrant their usage, usually it's just a MP4 segmented stream, or AES-128 HLS Stream. There's even a tool to do this :) on firefox you can get an addon called "The Stream Detector" which detects m3u8 stream files. On Kanopy they'll generally always be "rendition.m3u8". Using "The Stream Detector", you can go into Manage Extension and then Options, and set the "Copy Stream URL as" to FFMPEG command, from there you literally just need to have ffmpeg installed and in PATH and the rest is drop-dead simple.
